Elop: Nokia tablet will have a ‘uniquely Nokia perspective’

CNETAnalysis: Stephen Elop, Nokia’s CEO, has waxed lyrical on the subject of a Nokia tablet , saying that it is taking the soflty-softly-catchee monkey approach to building a slate. While the company focuses on getting its first Windows Phone 7 handsets out the door and getting back into the smartphone race, it isn’t taking its eye off the tablet prize: “We could take advantage of Microsoft technology and software, and build a Windows-oriented tablet, or we could do things with some of the other software assets that we have. “Our team right now is assessing what’s the right tablet strategy for Nokia,” said Elop, speaking to a Finnish television show. Spoilt for choice So Nokia is considering a number of tablet OSes; Windows (whether the Windows Phone OS or the long-time-coming tablet-optimised OS ), Symbian or MeeGo ; but it certainly doesn’t sound as though we’ll be seeing a Nokia iPad competitor any time soon. Elop continued, “There are now over 200 different tablets on the marketplace, only one of them is doing really well. “And, my challenge to the team is I don’t want to be the 201st tablet on the market that you can’t tell from all of the others. “We have to take a uniquely Nokia perspective and so the teams are working very hard on something that would be differentiating relative to everything else that’s going on in the market.” Related Stories Exclusive: Sky: Expect exciting apps from us this year Sony Tablet S1 unveiled, will take on Apple iPad Sony S2 unveiled as Honeycomb dual-screen tablet PlayStation Network still down, no end in sight Video: Gallery: Sony Tablet S1 and S2 Posted by: Maryum

In Depth: Could robots be the writers of the future?

CNETAnalysis: It might be concerned with aliens, outer space and dimensional jumping for now, but ‘sci-fi’ might have to be redefined if the latest advances in automated writing continue apace. Software that can construct sentences, analyse data and even put a ‘spin’ on a news story are threatening to make the newsdesk and the author’s writing room very different places. The end for journalists? Journalism isn’t complicated. The popularity of online news stories can be tracked – and therefore the importance of news easily ranked – while almost everything is written using the inverted pyramid structure . Since automated writing software can already do most of that, are we looking at the last generation of human journalists? Narrative Science’s Quill is the leading automated writing software title. It transforms structured data into readable, plain English stories that are identical to those written by humans, ...
